Located on scenic, tranquil Lakeshore Drive—just south of Saugatuck—you'll enjoy panoramic lake views, your own private beach (100' of beachfront!), and amazing sunsets. Unwind with family, friends, and your four legged friends at this peaceful lakefront getaway, and your adventures to Saugatuck, Holland, or South Haven are only a few minutes away. Whitecaps is a newly-renovated vintage lakefront Cape Cod, with a 25' front porch overlooking Lake Michigan. A beautiful stone patio extends from the porch to give you even more room to take in the lake. And there's plenty of room to play in the expansive front yard. INSIDE THE HOME Inside you'll relax in its large living room, dining room, or den, while still enjoying magical lake views. Its four full bathrooms and three large bedrooms will accommodate parties of up to 10. The majority of the rooms in the home provide beautiful views of Lake Michigan, a view you can never get tired looking at. The kitchen is stocked with all of the necessities to cook a grand meal and the dining table has room for six. There's plenty of room for board games in the enclosed back porch. The wooded backyard includes a large deck/patio area where you can cook out, hang out, sip your coffee (or wine or bourbon!), and maybe even spot a few deer. SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS The house sleeps 10 guests. Level One Bedroom One: Large bedroom, King Bed, Twin Day Bed, Full Bath Level Two Bedroom Two: Large bedroom, King Bed, Queen Bed, Full Bath Level Three Bedroom Three: Large bedroom, King Bed, Queen Bed, Full Bath THE LOCATION Being located at the end of the street it provides a nice quiet getaway.

The kids had a blast playing in the water and on the beach. (Adults did too.) Spacious home with plenty of room for 10 people to spread out and enjoy the trip. Lots of fresh fruits to pick from. And we did! ##### Roger D. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacquelyn C. Jul 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family trip The house was great - spacious for all of us. The only surprise was that the lake was a steep stair climb down and up from the house. The beach was tiny. There was no shoreline for a long walk so we walked the road easily enjoying the homes. The sunsets were gorgeous. We sat around the firepit and enjoyed the view. overall we loved being there. Thanks ##### Jacquelyn C. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Cathy H. Aug 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fennville vacation Overall, we had an enjoyable stay. The neighborhood and location were premium and felt safe.The home is older with limited updates. We attempted to open windows, due to an odor, but were unable. Laundry area was undesirable. Beds were very good, enjoyed the deer, taking walks on their he road and the close proximity to things to do. ##### Cathy H. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah W. Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Breathtaking spot for a family vacation! The property is beautiful and extremely well appointed. We traveled with a group of 9 family members of various ages and everyone had a wonderful time. The kids enjoyed playing in the spacious yard and close beach access. There were also a variety of games provided for them for rainy days! The adults loved the outdoor fireplaces and listening room after the kids went to bed. The house was spacious, with several common areas for groups to enjoy simultaneously. The property was at the end of the road with very little traffic and close proximity to Saugatuck. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we truly enjoyed it! ##### Sarah W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon B. Aug 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Chill The home was what it says it is. There are a lot of outlets that need repaired. The ovens are very small. The grill is also small. The price paid for the week. We expected a little more. All in all it was a good stay. Just a couple of things to work on. Oh bugs. Thousands dead on all doors and windows. Piles of them. Nothing they can do about it. Just be prepared. ##### Jon B.
